The ability to rapidly release new product features is vital to the success of today?s businesses. To accelerate development, teams are adopting agile practices and leveraging service-oriented architectures to integrate legacy applications with other systems. At the same time, testing these composite applications can take longer and cost more. Al Wagner explains the whys and hows of service virtualization and shares ways testers can employ this technology to simulate parts of complex systems and begin testing earlier. Attend this sesion to gain insights on which services to virtualize in order to maximize your ROI. Discover how testing at the API layer can isolate defects for faster remediation and avoid late stage integration issues. Stop waiting until the complete application is available in a test environment to begin your work. Leave with an understanding of how virtual components can make incomplete or unavailable application functionality available for testing.

Session Title:

Mobile DevOps - Challenges and Best Practices

Description:

Mobile apps are no longer stand-alone applications running on a mobile device. Apps today are complex systems that include application servers, data sources, and invocations of third-party systems. Mobile app development and deployment is further complicated with today's need for supporting multiple mobile devices, with multiple OS releases and multiple form factors. Keeping these complex systems up and running, constantly updated with the latest app version, is a task that requires constant coordination between development and operations teams. DevOps is a new and growing movement that addresses these challenges. The goal of DevOps is to align development and operations by introducing a set of principles and practices. Mobile apps take the need for these practices up a level. This talk will explain the basic practices of DevOps, will look at the DevOps challenges specific to mobile apps, and will provide some solutions, utilizing IBM tools and technologies.
